Explore and experience relief printmaking with linocut! It's uniquely personal and therapeutic, and yet fun for the whole family too!
Here's getting started:
- Start your printmaking journey by carving your image on linoleum sheets. Linoleum sheets are softer and easier to carve than wood, making it the perfect material to create your print mould
- Ink the surface of your carved linoleum sheet, and lay your paper on top
- Print & transfer your inked design onto the paper either by rubbing manually with a spoon or similar tool, or on a printing press!
- Repeat with different coloured paper, or clean your linoleum surface and try more colours!
